I seriously doubt Frank Losser's wife would have considered this a date rape song since she was reportedly furious when Frank sold the rights of the song to MGM...and since the meaning of the song lies with the original artist..a married man whose wife considered this "their song" this modern ignorant notion that this artistic classic has anything to do with date rape is brilliant example of modern interpretation ignoring an author's original intent. Not to mention a disservice to Norah.
@seashells616 I'm sure the the date rape reference is to the line "Say, what's in this drink?" I think it's a sweet song, but I kinda see why some people might disagree.
@altCountryGuy That's funny. It reminds me of the song "It's now or never"...so unromantic when you really think about it. "My love won't wait." What a jerk, right?
you misunderstand the power of this version. Willie Nelson's craggly Western articulation sharply contasts with Nora's silky jazz lyricism. This vocal contrast highlights the charming give and take of this most romantic of songs. It's a stunningly beautiful and unexpected fresh version of this classic. I'm sorry you are incapable of appreciating its raw beauty and its emotional passion.
Norah is just amazing!!! (as always) Wish they would have picked some other person for the man voice...This could have been my favorite version...for now I think Lady Antebellum's version wins :(
Norah is wonderful as always... but it sounds to me like they weren't in the studio together. More like they recorded at separate times. No real warmth from Willie...
Great version,, 2nd only to the AnnMargret/Al Hirt of circa 1965. Love the understated jazz of this version, with the prominent big bass. Her and Willie have done several other duets, and they compliment each other greatly IMO..
*****Check out our Version of Baby Its Cold Outside on our channel. I think you will really enjoy it. Its the first video that comes on :) Merry Christmas!!!***** comment on and like our video if you enjoy :)***** Thanks ----
Norah nails it...I just kinda get creeped out thinkin 'bout Willie singing this song to her... Sinceas mentioned previouly his voice doesn't produce the desired effects for this song. I liked the previous comment about this song done by Nora & Michael Buble...or that crooner from New Orleans (not Arron Nevels..the one who sounds like Sinatra) whose name just flew out my head...dang it, anyway, her voice suites this song perfectly...Willie, sorry dude, this just work for you at least not ith Nora
I have been waiting a long time for norah to do a duet with michael buble and this song would have been perfect.....WTF get to it people your fan base has spoken!!!!
my ex mess up leaving a great guy like me :( we been together for 2 months and she end up talking about sex. i told her it too soon i wanna wait longer or better too wait till marry and she tell me how can we be together with out sex. so she broke up with me. since she broke up with me i knew right then she promble just wanna me for sex. cause sex is really not the meaning of love i want someone who love me for who i am.and how great there personally is. it hard too find the right girl:(
@dullthesun that's how Willie sings. I've always thought that he should just stick to writing. :) just my opinion, this will probably set some willie fans off. LOL
something about old willie nelson and little norah jones singing the lyrics to this particular song sounds funny to me. however, they sound amazing together, so its easily forgiven ;)
First of all, great song. I like Ella Fitzgerald's version best, but Norah is awesome, no doubt....and to those people whose minds are in the gutter....seriously? Rape? It's so annoying to have people attempt to ruin beautiful music by projecting their own unhappy minds on it.
@csaenz415 Sure its one interpretation (I read that on cracked.com).... But Frank loesser (the songs author) wrote this song about his wife (while they were married, not before) and first sang it with her... so I doubt it was originally about rape
The words of the song are really pretty creepers... but it's just a solid enough piece of the "songbook" or whatever that you can forget about the lyrics and just enjoy it.
Love the song. It sounds like that are really next to each other drinking, and willie sure did make sure that drink was Strong toward the end she sounds extra happy lol
what a beauty!
